From what I get from Google translate, DragonBall will have another movie in 2020 after the Olympics and then a new series will start on April 2021.

Whoever only has 5 followers so chances are they're just guessing to get more people on board.

It's just speculation.

Probably false ideas that being shackled to a manga whose content goes at about a fourth the speed required by an anime will somehow improve it because that was what Z did, as if that didn't make it a boring slog most of the time.

Of course, the difference is that DB's manga released about 1 1/5 times faster than Super's does, and was just better overall than most of what the anime did. There's pretty much no way that trying to stringently follow Toyotaro's manga for no reason wouldn't make the show worse.

Not to mention that Super anime doesn't adapt the Super manga. Both manga and anime of Super are based in ideas and concepts from Toriyama.

Even if Moro arc is an idea of Toriyama. Super would likely adapt this different than the manga.

First of all do you even know what cancelled means?

It can also mean something was planned before being scrapped. Ajay and others said it went into pre-production back in October so IF that's true then chances are they had an April air date but something behind the scenes resulted in those plans being cancelled.

After the last episode of Super, many people here said: "It's just a hiatus because of the new movie." Yeah, of course, then where is it now?

Obviously, they stopped with DB anime production, because now the franchise make enough money without it.

The RF arc was a mess in part due to a one piece movie being in production at the same time so the idea of them stopping the anime to prevent another mess in an already troubled produced show is very likely if not outright true. You've also got to keep in mind that nearly everyone who worked on the show worked on the movie so there'd be no point continuing a show without its main staff members.

No company is OK with making just enough money. If DB airs on TV then the franchise makes a lot more than it does without it. Super hasn't returned for one of two reasons. 1- They figured that bringing it back during the fall or around the Olympics next year will help the franchise more than bringing it back now. 2- Something has gone wrong behind the scenes that's preventing them from getting it off the ground. I personally believe it's a marketing plan but if 2020 is here and we still have nothing then option 2 may be the more likely case.

Honestly i think all of this is a large mistranslation and what they've always been working on is a new movie. Why does it HAVE to be an anime? they could've simply meant a film and I'm betting on it being another film. We know for a fact that Toriyama is working on something and high chance that it's a script for a film either at the end of this year or early next year with a planned anime for 2020.

Broly was announced a year before its release so if we were getting a movie they would've announced it already.

It's hilarious how this went from some people being confident about their "sources" that Super 2.0 would have been announced by now and return in July, to no one knowing what the hell is going on.

Anyway, July is out of question now.

It has not been but maybe it will.

I'd be down for another movie

This proves that even with the best sources, you can't be sure about something happening or not until it's official.

Assuming it's similar to how the emails between Toriyama and Toei began around March 2017, let's imagine this stuff began around October last year then it's quite possible for them to announce the movie in July. I mean between March and December of 2017 that's 9 months, and 9 months between October and July so it's quite possible for it to be announced by then. This is pure speculation but I'm about 75 percent sure that no anime was ever in production.

Ya'll can't be mad with Geekdom anymore because he has shown everyone that he has checked his sources and that the " Non " announcement is with the executives.

[AnimeNation101]

Geekdom’s update on 2uper: https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=RScGjOKmZXk

There yall go. For the doubters, believers, and blamers of Geekdom, this is what he has to say about the matter.

As I’ve been saying, the man wasn’t bullshitting us. The man NEVER tries to bullshit us. As he said before, “dont shoot the messenger.”

Lmao I hope you are kidding. His new video proves nothing other than that he was wrong & condescending (as usual) when challenged about it.

He literally just showed everyone that his sources were telling him July and all he was doing is telling people what he was told, any changes in plans isn't on him so being rude and mean to him is pointless.

Except again, he asked to be dogged with stuff like 'you will apologize to me in May', which he didn't acknowledged in that video. He also well lied, when he said 'I have never lied', when I posted proof that Geekdom at the very least stretched the truth like him given two different stories about when he heard about Broly.

At the very least, he should have acknowledged that those who doubted him had somewhat of a point like Ajay, instead he went on the offensive.

He “literally” did not. He showed blacked out names texting him. Other than that it was 8-9 minutes of info readily available to anyone like the voice actor who took back what he said.

He is the one who initiates a lot of the reaction he gets when he constantly is condescending to people who questioned him (and were proven right as the show is obviously not going to air in July nor was it announced when he claimed “we’d be sorry”)

It’s baffling he has fanboys defending this lol

He even said he takes his credibility seriously so him taking offense to all his haters makes sense

He also told that the 30th anniversary BD how good it will be.

He can take offense all he wants, he was wrong and refused to acknowledged that he was acting like an asshole about his sources with 'you will apologize to me in May'. That and I have caught him lying or, stretching the truth if I want to give him the benefit of the doubt.

Part of being an adult is learning to say, 'I was wrong, and I'm sorry' like Ajay did here and even saying that his source being wrong wasn't an excuse. Geekdom proves once again the he isn't an adult.

I don't have a problem with Geekdom and Ajay getting stuff wrong because their sources were off. It happens all the time. My problem is with how Geekdom handled the entire thing. Namely, he went into bitch mode and never apologized for it. Heck, he didn't even acknowledged that he did it.

He also stressed that it was a guess and not confirmed. Shouldn’t we be talking about everything Geekdom has said that he has claimed is 100% confirmed? Idk why you guys are still hung up on him getting his guesses wrong just like everyone else did.
